Welsh Water has completed repair work to a burst water main in the Putson area of Hereford.

Ian Christie, Welsh Water's Managing Director of Water Services said: "While the repair is now complete, we know that supplies to some customers in the Belmont, Redhill, Kings Acre, Putson, and Hunderton areas are still affected.  We are very sorry for the ongoing disruption customers there are experiencing.

"Our team will be working throughout the night in the area to get the system back to normal however it will likely be later tonight before all supplies are fully restored.  We will also continue to have tankers operating in the area which will help with getting supplies back to normal.

"We provided bottled water directly to those customers on our additional needs register and we also have bottled water available for customers to collect at the Tesco and Asda car parks in Belmont.

"We wish to apologise again for the disruption caused by the burst and wish to assure everyone that we are doing everything we can to put things right and restore all drinking water supplies as quickly as possible."
